Another package

The next few days things had been calm. Without much going on the work went on smooth as usual. Sarah had been pondering over a new design, while I had a few meetings with the new clients.

Many of them had started to take note of our firm after the Brimstone project. "Diamond" is everyone asking for her designs.

"BENNY BOY" Alex came rushing into my office room. From the looks of it, he has some brilliant ideas.

"What is it this time?"

"Why don't we have an exhibition with all the projects we have done so far?" already looking for galleries.

"Why so suddenly?"

"hmm... I just went through a list of projects we did, and the list is pretty impressive,"

"Oh!!! so?"

"And I spent a few hours in our archives, and they do deserve a little limelight,"

"I do like your idea, maybe we can do an exhibition this year, without the annual celebration night,"

"Let's talk with uncle,"

"Ok.."

That night I went and looked at the room arranged for Jonathan and his family. As for Meg and Alex, they went out for a stroll after dinner. I went looking for Sarah, who was seen curled up with a book in her hand. I softly went to her and kissed her forehead.

"Hi," she said looking at me.

"Alex has gone through some brain freeze,"

"Oh... what did he come up with?"

"He wants to do an exhibition with our old projects,"

"You mean, walk down memory lane?"

"Hmm... yes something like that. I want to know what you think?"

"Well, I think it's a good idea. Did you ask father about it?"

"Not yet. I was thinking of this instead of the gala event,"

"Let's talk with father and see,"

The next day Sarah had baked some choco chip cookies. While I went down to breakfast I saw Alex already eating half of it and his mouthful,

"Lit...le.... bud... the..re.. so.. yu.mmy.."

"ALEX!!!" she said in a scolding tone.

"Hmmm..."

"Did you get into trouble, Mr.Knight of shining armor?" I asked taking the cup of tea from Sarah.

"Who me?"

"Yes," I said nodding.

"Alex I baked them for father. Because Ben was going to talk with father about your brilliant idea,"

"OOPsieeee... Sorry.." he made a pout... "Well I will help yee bake more cookieeessss" he said starting to wear the apron at hand.

I watched him help Sarah make more cookies as well as make a huge mess in the kitchen while he was at it. Well, it's free entertainment.

"ALEX"

"Yeah babe," he said looking at Meg, who had just got home after an emergency case at the hospital.

"Look what a mess you have made?"

"Hmm... I had to help because she wanted to make more of these," he said eyeing the cookies on a tray.

"Sarah when did you make these, they look so good," she said while putting one in her mouth.

"Ben, can you please help me make more, as this is not going to help. Soon there will be none for father," she said with a gloomy face.

"Ok bud,"

As I readied to help her, Markus came in with a parcel. He looked at the mess we had made and started laughing.

"Do you need some extra hand, Ms.Sarah?"

"Ammm... you can see the extra hand has caused a tornado here. So I guess I will stick with him," she said pointing at me. While Alex was grinning from ear to ear, Meg almost hit him.

"What do you have there?" I asked looking at what was in his hand.

"Hmm.. someone delivered this to Ms.Sarah,"

I looked at her and took it from Markus. When I opened the box, there contained a few more photos and a note in the same handwriting.

"Don't worry sir, I have someone follow him,"

"He must be the same guy as last time," said Alex.

"These photos, they look so...Alex,"

"This is a set of photos when we visited the springs, well when we were in high school," He also looked surprised.

What was happening? How could he have these photos of us? Everything is so confusing.

"Sir,"

"Yes, Markus?" I said wondering what is this.

"He went to the house of Mr.Willson's,"

"So he is the brother who took the photos?" asked Alex.

"Could be," said Markus nodding his head.

As Sarah had finished baking the cookies while this hallabu was happening, Alex and I decided to visit our fathers next door who were fishing with Sarah's father near the river bank.

Paul was informed about this and he informed Mr.Willson about his brother's visit. And urged him to let us meet his brother soon.

"Hi Dad,"

"Oh how are you guys?" said Alex's dad.

"So why are you here?" asked my father.

"Almost forgot, Sarah made all of you some cookies. Fresh out of the oven," I said handing them the package.

After a little chit-chat and helping them catch a few fishies. We briefed them of what happened and showed them the photos.

"I remember we went there on a company trip," said Sarah's father.

"We also went there for a family trip, I think during September," said my father looking at Alex's dad.

"Hmm.. yes," he said looking at the photos.

"What a coincidence, we went at the same time," said Sarah's father.

"I remember there were three kids, one was, Mr.Willson's young son taking photos. When I think of it, these kids look familiar," he said looking at us.

"Father, this is me and Alex,"

"OH my.." was all Sarah's father said.
